Joe's grandma lives 36 blocks up the street from Joe. On Saturday, Joe rode his bike two-thirds of the way to his grandma's house and then realized he
forgot the present he was going to give her. Joe rode back to his house, got the
present, and rode all the way to his grandma's house. Then he rode straight home.
How many blocks did Joe ride in all? Use labeled sketches, numbers, or words to

You drop a rubber ball off the roof of a 50 meter high building onto a paved parking lot. it bounces back up with every bounce, but not quite all the way back up to you. after the first bounce it bounces back only 80 percent of the distance it was dropped from. the pattern continues, meaning after every bounce it comes up to just 80 percent of the previous maximum height. so if before the first bounce the height is 50 meters, what height does the ball reach after the fifth bounce? round your answer to one decimal place and chose the correct response from the choices below:

For [tex]f(x) = 4x + 1[/tex] and (x) = [tex]g(x)= x^{2} -5,[/tex] find [tex](\frac{g}{f}) (x)[/tex]a. [tex]\frac{x^{2} - 5 }{4x +1 },x[/tex] ≠ [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]b. x[tex]\frac{4 x +1 }{x^{2} - 5}, x[/tex] ≠ ± [tex]\sqrt[]{5}[/tex]c. [tex]\frac{4x +1}{x^{2} -5}[/tex]d.[tex]\frac{x^{2} -5 }{4x + 1}[/tex]
